In the winter of 1943, Benjamin is just a grunt and Army cook—until he finds himself captured, along with his unit, taken prisoner by Mussolini's troops after the
Battle of Tunisia.

Transported to a POW camp in Italy, Benjamin is plagued with intense visions of Valkyries and their leader, the goddess Frigga.

When he encounters a woman bearing an uncanny resemblance to the goddess, he wonders if he hasn’t been entangled in a battle between the natural and the supernatural—a
battle for the present and the future.
